The reason that it is preferable to send oil to Oz than India, is because if you send it to the AC factories in Oz, you get a direct return by forcing the AC factories to produce faster (otherwise, their only oil is trickling in from Brisbane).
India is lacking in oil, and could certainly use it to power it's HI, but again, since HI is simply a "pool" of points, it doesn't matter whether you're making up the deficit in Oz or India (and again, any extra oil in Oz will go towards increasing your AC production).
Frankly, I personally don't think it's worth the effort. You can say, "It just helps me to power my HI, so I might as well." True. But there is also the consideration that you're risking ships (esp escorts) and VPs as you transit the oil. If you can move everything safely, sure, knock yourself out. But frankly, I don't think it's worth risking TKs and their escorts (and the VPs involved), over something that truely -is- just a drop in the bucket of Allied production.
